Hell of a good idea, in fact. A while back I suggested doing a NeverWinter Nights module entirely in Lojban, but this is better. More repitition. Repitition good. Unfortunately, as with the NWN idea, I can't volunteer for this. I'd *love* to, but I'm hella busy with other Lojbanic things, and I'm not so burnt out that I need to go work on something fun and ignore, say, the BPFK. But it's a *great* idea, and Someone Should Do It. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** http://www.lojban.org/ Reason #237 To Learn Lojban: "Homonyms: Their Grate!"
